Votey:
Close-up of the younger reddish-haired clergyman in his clerical collar, looking smug/annoyed, delivering a comeback in a speech bubble.
Younger clergyman: "IF GOD IS OMNIPOTENT, OMNISCIENT, AND OMNIBENEVOLENT HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN YO MAMA?!"

A two-part comic. Top banner reads 'TENSIONS MOUNT AT THE THEOLOGY CONFERENCE.' In the main panel, two clergymen in black robes with white clerical collars argue against a purple backdrop. An older bald, gray-bearded man wearing glasses jabs his finger at a younger red-haired man and shouts, 'Could God create yo mama so fat, even He couldn't lift her?!' The joke mashes the classic omnipotence paradox (can God make a rock too heavy to lift) with a 'yo mama' insult. In the votey aftercomic, a close-up shows the younger red-haired clergyman firing back smugly: 'If God is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent, how do you explain yo mama?!' -- recasting the philosophical problem of evil as a 'yo mama' burn.
